Guest Post by Victor Davis Hanson
The most recent liberal ABC News/Washington Post poll showed President Joe Biden’s approval rating at 36 percent – the lowest in history for a president at this point in his first term.
Biden’s low popularity is no mystery.
He inherited energy independence, affordable gas prices, historically low interest rates, low inflation, calm overseas, a low crime rate, and a largely closed border with legal-only immigration.
And then Biden destroyed that inheritance.
He has begged illiberal foreign governments to pump oil he refuses to drill domestically for.
He spiked inflation at the highest rate in over 40 years.
Home interest rates have skyrocketed from less than 3% to 7%.
He nearly doubled the price of gasoline.
His hare-brained retreat from Afghanistan marked the greatest humiliation of the American military in the last half-century.
Kabul is now selling billions of dollars’ worth of abandoned American equipment to terrorists and anti-American regimes.
After that fiasco, Biden foolhardily played down a possible “minor” Russia invasion of Ukraine. He implored Russia to exempt some American institutions from its cyber-attack target list.
No wonder an empowered Russian President Vladimir Putin went into Ukraine.
Biden’s family is corrupt from top to bottom.
Its influence peddling schemes increasingly are targets of congressional investigations. Biden himself is explicitly mentioned by his son Hunter as the recipient of a 10% commission on monies the family syndicate leveraged from foreign interests.
Biden promised “unity.” Instead, he habitually smears half the country as “semi-fascists” and “ultra-MAGA” extremists.
Biden is cognitively challenged and often incoherent. And he is now losing support in the polls from African Americans, once his most loyal constituency.
In response, Biden does what he has always done for some 40 years: mouth wild racist demagoguery.
This graduation season, Biden deliberately chose Howard University to scare its Black graduates into believing the greatest threat to their aspirations is “white supremacy” – but that he, Biden, has been their protector in fighting it.
Note the existential threats Biden deliberately omits.
Tens of thousands of illegal immigrants are flooding over a border Biden deliberately destroyed. Millions of incoming poor will vie for limited federal and state support with Americans who are in need.
Since Biden was elected, there have been nearly 7 million illegal entries.
Some 100,000 Americans now die each year from Mexican-produced fentanyl and other opioids shipped across a wide-open border.
Biden did not mention that nearly 10,000 African Americans are murdered each year, over 90% of them killed by other African Americans.
Biden first should heal his own racism before he fabricates it in others.
He fueled his early Senate career with homages to southern Democratic segregationists such as Senator James O. Eastland, D-Miss. Biden even bragged that Eastland “never called me ‘boy.'” Biden gave eulogies for former Dixiecrat Sen. Strom Thurmond and former Klansman Sen. Robert Byrd.
Of school busing, a younger Senator Biden thundered, “My children are going to grow up in a jungle, the jungle being a racial jungle.”
Biden in 2008 patronized former President Barack Obama in racist terms as “the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy.”
In 2012, Biden condescended to a group of accomplished Black professionals that the Republican presidential nominee, Mitt Romney, would “put y’all back in chains.”
As a presidential candidate in 2020, he dismissed two Black journalists, respectively with the putdowns “you ain’t Black” and “junkie.”
His fabricated “Corn Pop” he-man autobiographical tales are utterly racist.
As president he has referred to two prominent people of color as “boy.” He still uses the term “Negro” to refer to Blacks.
Biden never cites data to support his wild accusations that white supremacy poses the nation’s greatest threat.
The 2020 riots, the lengthiest in our history, left up to 40 people dead, destroyed $2 billion in property, led to 14,000 arrests, spanned 120 days of mass looting, and arson, and saw mobs torching police precincts, federal courthouses, and a historic church.
That violence was engineered by radicals in Antifa and Black Lives Matter.
In the January 6 Capitol protests, the only person confirmed to have been killed at that event was an unarmed military veteran and Trump supporter, Ashli Babbitt. She was fatally shot by a Capitol police officer for the misdemeanor of attempting to enter through a broken window.
If “white supremacy” is our “greatest” terrorist threat, surely crime statistics would reveal such an existential peril.
Yet federal hate- and interracial-crime data show that so-called whites are considerably unrepresented demographically in such racially motivated violence.
Far from galvanizing the public, Biden’s monotonous racial demagoguery is turning it off.
The military suffers a vast drop in enlistments that began once Biden’s Pentagon brass, without evidence, likewise began demagoguing about supposed “white rage” in the ranks.
Only 37% of independents in a recent poll now support Biden. Some 70% of the public in other polls opposes a second Biden run.
So on spec, a panicked Biden now turns to what he has done for decades – inflammatory racial demagoguery.

…and that’s why he was installed. The dementia patient sacrificial goat to take all blame from people who still believe that we are a sovereign nation and free, while all puppeteers walk. There is no bungling or snafu’s. It’s all by design and planned. It’s what the rulers want, owned by their masters.
A true puppet showing us we have no government. He was a humiliation tool for us most of all.
Every day the Meat Puppet pretends to be president TLPTB (L=Luciferians ) snicker while giving one another their secret hand shake while mocking the masses of asses who constantly carp and complain about him…they double over in laughter at the 10% of American who actually support him. (The polls are just more lies).
Every once in a while I can’t take it anymore and after hearing someone complain about Biden I launch into a historically accurate FED rant…then follow it up with a history of 20th and 21st century false flags. When challenged I will follow up with that person(s) if they promise to read/listen and send them books, vids, and articles about both sides of the Uni Party.
Have made some conversions. The video of the Cruise missile (not an airliner) hitting the Pentagon…and the Bldg. 7 spontaneous collapse on 911 has done the trick for many of the REMEMBER 911 cucks.
One time at a dinner party talking to a former two term Republican Congresswoman (she served 20 years ago) who actually knew two things about the FED’s real Bloodlines and their real history…JACK & SHIT…I left her astonished after a recap of the Creature from Jekyll Island.
The next day I sent her the proof. Never heard another word back from her.
One of the many reasons I hang here is for the mountains of truth bombs posted by Admin and commenters I collect/use drop on good people who are clueless to their lifelong propagandizing, brain washing, and dumbing down.
I do not want to go off-topic on this comment thread, so I want to have a brief email conversation with you about colloidal silver and related topics. I bought the book you recommended, and am interested in acquiring any additional related info you have. The admin can give you my email address.
Might want to be a little prudent with colloidal silver. One of my clan’s 20 year old males went vegan,and then got into diet suppliments. He is now a lovely shade of blue/gray. Yes,that is permanent.
That can’t happen with true colloidal silver. It’s the ionic silver that causes argyria. Many, if not most of the so called colloidal silver products are predominantly ionic in nature. Especially those cheap colloidal makers.

A 36% approval rating???
How on Earth is it that high???
Perhaps they missed a decimal?
3.6% sounds about right…
Polls are, like all (((news))), fake anyway.
I refer to it as Pollaganda – using polls to drive public opinion.
I really hate that. The practice, that is.
Mostly…but not the Rasmussen poll that shows Dementia Joe tied with RFK jr…
Do you ever watch those videos of that guy who interviews California idiots on the boardwalk with the simplest questions?
I’m sure it’s edited but the volume of brainless curs going through their mindless routines is astonishing. Never underestimate the stupidity of the average American.
This is a good primer for TBP noobs.
“Migrant”. The poor little girl – but, she was an illegal, non-friendly invader. I mean, she wasn’t, but her people were. She was a helpless, innocent child . . . but fuck all the adults – on both sides – who are making this happen.
She was part of an invasion, not a “migrant”. Let these dreamers dream – and work/build – in their area. If they’re any good, then let them stay put and do right in their area . . . since they’re such prize assets.
You are not seeing an invasion. It has always been like this. This is all ” normal ”. US , UN and NGO’s are not building camps and funding buses.
And if you say otherwise , well you’re ray-cisss.

said they were closing the Darien route. Close to 200 have died on the crossing since that time. The route is wide open. Thousands making their way in every day. Huge environmental damage. And human misery.

Colony Ridge, located 40-50 miles NW of Houston, is a Central America style city of 100k illegal immigrants and cartel crime. Where is the Texas Governor and legislature?

Where are the environmentalist whackadoodles? This colony at Colony Ridge involved clear cutting a huge forest to make this camp. I do not know the accuracy of the info I have but was told this colony was done by the illegal squatters as opposed to government people and either Bensman or Ben Berquam is the source I heard on Warroom. They both report on Warroom daily.
Here you go:
They were anti-immigrant, then a wealthy jew shoved money down their throats until they changed their position.
Why are these ‘migrants’ good for America, when they weren’t for their own countries?
Like the Marielito’s from Cuba in the 80s, they are clearing out their jails and sending them to us.
A corrupt career politician is placed into office…….Nice job VDH detailing the results…..
But as usual, VDH doesn’t offer any solutions except voting harder…typical establishment Republicrat…
What is your plan to fix things?
Victor Davis Hanson’s 10 Steps to Save America
So, color blind retardism? This stupid shit is part of the problem. Race is upstream from culture. This is why sub-saharan Africa is a shithole, it’s why black areas of the west are shitholes.
In the 50s, 60s, and 70s a major psy op was done by the American mass media. Race realists were depicted as vile, violent ignoramuses, and blacks were portrayed as innocent victims and as morally and intellectually superior to Whites. I recommend watching the 70s TV show, “All in the Family”, not as entertainment, but as an example of how the propaganda was done. Most people let media define their reality (even if they say they don’t) and soon accepting the reality of racial differences was taken as making you totally evil. Today the mainstream “conservatives” are caught in the same trap as everyone else. That’s why they pretend to “not see race” and promote every conservative black person they can find. If Candace Owens was White she’d just be another MAGA poster on the Internet. But she’s black, so she was made famous. That’s also why conservatives are now useless on policy. All black misbehavior is now blamed on “Democrats”, disastrous inner city schools are due to teacher’s unions, and so forth. They can’t fix the problem because their brains block all recognition of what the problem is.
The truth is that the left is slightly more honest. They accept the same baseless premise of racial equality that the conservatives do, but acknowledge high rates of black incarceration, poor school performance by blacks, and the lower average wealth of blacks. Because they “know” that all races are equal, they conclude this must be due to institutional racism and White privilege. and come up with solutions like reparations, releasing criminals from prison, and throwing ever more money into black schools. Conservatives have no real answer to the liberals, because if you accept the ridiculous premise of racial equality, and conservatives do, the liberals are right.
This is one reason why conservatism is worthless.
Who does? WHO? Every swinging dick with a set of stones knows full well what has to happen. And it ain’t pretty. Continued submission won’t save you.
Biden was installed to be a wrecking ball for destroying our system so the reset can happen. Soon the banks will be wrecked and a CBDC will happen. Furthering the ability to monitor and control people. the reset will be offered as the fix.
That’s the plan, no question. But will it succeed? I’m not so sure. Not in the long run. It wouldn’t be long before the US goes the way of Venezuela or Zimbabwe. The collapse would happen here much quicker because our systems are so so complex and interdependent, and as it is our logistics chains are stretched to the limits and are very brittle and fragile
Refuse, agitate, cause as much trouble as you can.
Irish Democracy.
Biden went to make a speech at a black college to whine about white people. I understand that afterward he had a reception line where all the men in the audience came through so Biden could pat them on the head and call them good boys.
He said they were all clean and articulate.
He just liked the rolls of tar paper between their legs .

Well…they would be correct in saying so.
Evil finally exposed!
“Hillary knows she is above the law and can commit crimes in the open without penalty or even criticism. Obama, Biden, the FBI, the CIA, and numerous politicians knew that everything regarding “Russian collusion” was a complete lie.”
Meh
“Since Biden was elected”
That’s a big part of the problem, he wasn’t elected, he was installed, so why would he give a rat’s ass about polling numbers? He doing the bidding of the people who installed him, and those people want to destroy the US, and they will re install him again in 2024. As long as they keep him supplied with children and ice cream he’s going to do what they say.
FJB is the embodiment of the ongoing and increasing humiliation and mockery of everything that the U.S.A. once stood for.
The Evil Fuckers and their tools are having cocktails, caviar and plenty of laffs watching the resident’s shit-show from the fantail of a mega-yacht, maybe 70 meters, somewhere in Mediterranean, Caribbean or South Pacific (it doesn’t matter) amidst various “crew” members and young “guests” serving up plenty of Epsteinian and Hunteresque treats.
Do you think we will be able to piss on Bidens grave when he’s gone?
Do you really think you’ll have time for petty shit like that going forward? If so, you’re quite the optimist. Although, if the opportunity were to present itself, I’d have no moral objections.
I wouldn’t.
My piss is too good for him.

No need to regurgitate the idiocy that is Joe Biden’s historical record .
He epitomizes the Corruption that is Washington DC and why there was a January 6 extreme protest .
A true threat to what is now a policy of treasonous corruption supported by the very people elected , appointed and hired who scoff at their oath to prevent what they are willing participants in !
The weaponization Of Government Against American Citizens !
Washington DC has become the Asshole Of America impacted with human walking talking impacted piles of shit and a enema of Biblical proportions is in desperate need !
Since we are talking about a person who has no brain here is my only reasonable response:
INVASION = To fundamentally transform America
From intel source, “We look at the math at the ZIP Code level. Some counties only need 30 or 40 “relocated voters “to change a rural county from red to blue. This is very detailed and specific design.”
He fueled his early Senate career with homages to southern Democratic segregationists such as Senator James O. Eastland, D-Miss. Biden even bragged that Eastland “never called me ‘boy.’” Biden gave eulogies for former Dixiecrat Sen. Strom Thurmond and former Klansman Sen. Robert Byrd.
Of school busing, a younger Senator Biden thundered, “My children are going to grow up in a jungle, the jungle being a racial jungle.”
OK – so xiden got a couple of things right years ago…
And then, for no reason at all, Putin invaded the Ukraine…..VDH is just another puppet…
And a dumbass at that. Stupid POS that has no idea what kind of an irredeemably corrupt country that the USSA is. This country deserves to be destroyed but fortunately for us, people like Putin are too kind to the POS in the USSA government.
Can we not just pray him into an early grave?
BEFORE,
He puts ALL of US in an early grave?
“…But, other than that, He’s doing Great!!”

TBP always showcases the puppets we see every day. What’s strange is we never see an expose on cabinet members, bank CEOs, MIC honchos….
Cohencidently, all jews.
It’s to bad Hanson gets top billing here.
Hanson has called the proxy fighters FOR US that protested, not Rioted, and many illegally imprisoned against OUR rights, buffoons and imbeciles. He has NEVER taken it back. He never refers to the Capitol protest as anything other then a riot. Looking back and looking forward, its too bad it wasn’t the Insurrection they said it was.
“The Capitol riot simply offered members of the left the sort of perfect crisis that they determined should never go to waste.” VDH
BLM and Antifa Riot. Not Trump supporters Mr Hanson. That you dont know the difference eliminates whatever credibility you ever had.
Being a moderate, VDH is good for moving a salvageable Normie gently through the Overton Window and into more advanced thinking Burning Platform material. “Deprogramming”, if you will.
Good that JQ offers these occasional basics for such folks that we can refer them and grow the site. Most of our daily discussions, ahem, can be easily misconstrued as cynical malcontents chomping at the bit for Ragnarok 🙂
Our Feisty Fightin’ Fifth graders have a future on the eastern front eatin’ Wendy’s fries and AK-74 fire.
The Democrats are America’s “Free Shyte Army”. They will happily vote for Joe Biden just as they did for Carter,Bill Clinton, and Barrack Obama. These people want their free stuff. It’s bigger than just the welfare drones. Government “workers” at all levels,including teachers,line up at the trough.
37% Biden approval is as accurate as “safe and effective vaccines”.
It is under 10%
